Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 94:5156-61. 1997..From this analysis and the gene structure, we propose that modern Pax-4/6 and Pax-2/5/8 genes evolved from an ancestral gene similar to cnidarian Pax-B, having both the homeodomain and the octapeptide...

Human Genetics Center, School of Public Health and Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, University of Texas, Houston, Texas 77030, USA
Genetics 151:1547-57. 1999..In addition, the nucleotide diversity at the MC1R locus is shown to be several times higher than the average nucleotide diversity in human populations, possibly due to diversifying selection...

Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, Program in Human and Molecular Genetics, University of Texas, Health Science Center, Houston, Texas 77030, USA
Genome Res 9:449-56. 1999..Hence, it appears that the majority of the introns in the SLRP genes were inserted after the differentiation of the SLRP genes from an ancestral gene that was most likely composed of 2-3 exons...
Evolutionarily conserved, "acatalytic" carbonic anhydrase-related protein XI contains a sequence motif present in the neuropeptide sauvagine: the human CA-RP XI gene (CA11) is embedded between the secretor gene cluster and the DBP gene at 19q13.D A Lovejoy

Frequent gene conversion between human red and green opsin genesZ Zhao
J Mol Evol 46:494-6. 1998..In conclusion, gene conversion has occurred frequently between human red and green opsin genes, but exons 2, 3, 4, and 5 have been maintained distinct between the two genes by natural selection...
Mitochondrial carbonic anhydrase CA VB: differences in tissue distribution and pattern of evolution from those of CA VA suggest distinct physiological rolesG N Shah
Edward A Doisy Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Department of Pediatrics, St Louis University School of Medicine, St Louis, MO 63104, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 97:1677-82. 2000..Both the differences in tissue distribution and the much greater evolutionary constraints on CA VB sequences suggest that CA VB and CA VA have evolved to assume different physiological roles...
